the third pic is the beach is on the left where i learned to swim.beach is gone and water much shallower now

A small hint,there are points in that crik.I won't say where but their there.

Thats the old diving board foundation.Dive there now you'll break your neck but it was deep back then.ziI don't know if they had dug it out or natural events made the hole and then filled it in. Did the bridge hold up for you?

PS if you cross the bridge immediately head south to the right or you will pass garrisons house.He thinks that all is his kingdom but once across the bridge he only owns the land on the left out to the black top but if you let him BS you he will have you thinking he owns it all,best just to...

The old saw mill sat immediately to your right.you can look along the shore and see the old foundation block with the bolts in it the diving board used to be attached to.The crik was much deeper then.Camp Hollybrook days back in the 70's

That bridge is fine. i walked across it a few months ago and I dont even want to tell you how much I weigh.enough to be the bridge tester. The barricade is to stop dirt bikes not hikers

I hear the Wooleys owned some swamp land I have this album since the 80's,never thought I"d marry a woman related to the swamp owners.

The Stream you were looking at at the party spot was Manumuskin River,same creek that runs under the bridge only downstream. Big Neal branch meets the Manumuskin at the Bridge in what used to be the backed up pond.There is often no water in it. and 66C10 us correct bennetts Mill was a Cranberry...

Yes this is the exact spot where his well photo was taken.

Looks like the bridge is down for the count.I doubt they will ever replace it.

Were these pictures taken of this Bennetts Mill? https://boydsmaps.com/#15.00/39.423706/-74.908410/pines1949/0.00/0.00 I believe that pic you took of that what I always thought was an old well is south of Bennetts here https://boydsmaps.com/#15.00/39.414158/-74.908667/pines2023/0.00/0.00...

So Manumuskin means "To Drink Swamp water at this place"? I LIKE IT! Fits me perfectly for I have been known to drink swamp water on purpose and accidently.

The foundation you took pics of next to the raceway is the remains of the Mill

I"m in that group.Never thought of that.Thanks!

wish I had a pic of the cabin.I"ve never seen one.Wonder if any exist?

I made the number one reply on there. I remember they made some mistakes about where they were. Potters Cabin stood at the two chimneys.It was burned down in the 90's by some punks.It was in pretty good shape still in the 70's when I was a kid.The roof was still good and it was dry inside then.

Thats not as bad as i imagined,half of its still there

you do know the southern chimney fell down last year don't you? I have heard anyway,aint been by it since it fell

Peaceful? Did you ever read the newspaper clipping of the murder that was committed at Fries Mill over a woman.Wasn't always peaceful there but then again that goes for any where people have lived very long.
